British publications were aware of the location of the honeymoon, but made an agreement at the time not to publish any photographs.

It is currently unclear how the magazine was able to have gathered the photographs, which would have been taken by a long lens, reports The Telegraph.

The cover photo shows the pair holding hands on a beach, while the title reads 'Our Island Paradise'. The magazine has been met with criticism for making it appear that the couple had allowed the photographs to be published.

A royal spokesperson said: "It's a very private moment and we would ask people to respect that privacy, as we did at the time."

Woman's Day officials have yet to respond to the controversy.

A separate Australian magazine - New Idea - has previously caused outrage among the royal family by publishing the infamous 'Camillagate' transcripts, the phone conversations between Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles.

The same magazine later broke protocol by revealing that Prince Harry was going to Afghanistan with the British Army in 2008.
